Kansas Crimson

gotta pay up to be competitive in a state with the Yankees of cbb

True. KU has established themselves as one of the top spenders in CBB.

Although some would say we always were, just with Adidas doing to payroll until recently.

At first, I didn't understand your post. I thought you were saying he was ranked #3 in the ESPN Top 100.
Now I get that you meant he is the 3rd player they got who is/was ranked in the ESPN top 100.
Good for BYU. Meanwhile, fuck 'em.
Sucks for Purdue? Or did they get someone else who they would rather have than him?

He used them. And they used him.

He was never their #1 choice. They knew he wasn't leaving UConn to move to LA. They knew JJ was their coach for months.

CLAIMS he was torn. The question becomes what is "torn"? 50/50? 25/75? I'm guess closer to 25/75.

I don't think he was torn at all. I think if it were the New York Knicks he'd have been torn.

I also think he'd have taken the Knicks job if offered to him....which it will be in the next 2-3 years.

Cooper Flagg is probably the #1 "trending" basketball player in the world right now.
17 year old has been holding his own against the best basketball players in world.
I like him. Shame I and most of the college basketball fans in the country will be rooting against his success from November 2024 to April 2025 because of the team he will play for.
I can't help but wonder how many teams will make the effort to trade up to draft him #1.

Maine kid chose the 2nd worst route possible.
